Shoe Reviews

The Nike Air Zoom Pegasus 36 Trail is at the centre of the collection, a crossover trainer that offers easy transition from the trail to the road. The duality of the Peg Trail is captured by the two colour schemes, one a classic red, white and blue expression and the other in Takahashi's now familiar mix of earthy tones.

When comparing the Tarkine Autopilot to the Hoka Bondi, it’s clear both shoes offer exceptional comfort and performance for road runners. However, Tarkine Autopilot’s features give it the edge for those who prioritize sustainability, support, and long-lasting comfort.

Runner's Tribe were sent a new pair of black on black UA HOVR Phantom 2 Intelliknit, and they are pretty sweet.   Awesome for short runs, equally as cool to wear casually. UA took their popular HOVR Phantom 2 running shoes and wrapped them in light, breathable UA IntelliKnit, which is a great feeling knit fabric that hugs your feet. They’re quick-drying, stretchy, and mapped to move with your feet. 

Brooks Hyerpion Tempo and a lightweight, neutral training shoe made using a nitrogen infused super foam.  A fun, fast and snappy shoe.

ASICS today announces the launch of the latest stability running shoe, the GT-2000TM 11. The highly versatile and reliable trainer offers outstanding cushioning, support and stability, for a comfortable run.  

Comfort in running shoes is a subjective term that varies among runners. For some, a soft midsole spells comfort, while others prioritize a plush, roomy upper. Additionally, the type of run can influence what feels comfortable—what works for a 5K might not be ideal for a marathon, and vice versa.

Before being contacted by Under Armour I had never worn or touched an UA product. I knew they made shoes, but I figured they weren’t any good. Then when Luke Mathews signed with the Baltimore-based brand, I figured ok, maybe they are worth a shot. Good on them at least for supporting one of our best middle-distance runners.

Our first ever HOKA Mach review, will not be out last. One of HOKA’S nicest rides to date. The Mach 4 is a shoe designed as a sort of cross between a daily trainer, and lightweight speed shoe. It is lightweight, durable, and fast.  In the HOKA range, it fits somewhere between the Rincon and the Clifton. We whacked 84K into our pair, below is the rundown.

When most people think of HOKA they think of a maximalist type running shoe with loads of cushion. This is only partly true, there are many misconceptions. Hoka’s Clifton 6 is a high mileage neutral training shoe with ample soft cushioning. Not designed for speed, but for long distances or easy runs. The Clifton 6 is very reminiscent of the very popular Clifton 1, the midsole foam is very similar with a softness to it rarely seen in a running shoe. It is vastly different to the HOKA 4 and 5 which had harder foams and a narrower mould. With the Clifton 6 you get the feeling that Hoka listened to its customers and brought the Clifton series back to its origins – a nice, soft, lightweight, cushioned ride.
